[QUESTION] Removing IE - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development

Anyone know how to remove Internet Explorer in the kitchen? WM6.5 21820. Of course I don't want to remove the engine but just the browser. And secondly where in the registry should I search for the entry responsible for showing IE in Titanium Panel? I want to change it into Opera...

I don't know how to remove the browser but... don't remove it: it is an essential part of Windows/Mobile environment.. and removing IE will result in a very little gain of memory in ROM...
However, you can remove the IE favorites in Titanium with CHome Editor, deselecting the favorites tab... for changing in Opera, you have to download the Opera favorites plugin for Titanium and select it in CHome
I hope this will be helpful

ok, thanks

Registerkeys for the "mail/internet explorer" butt

I would like to change the path of the registerkeys for the "mail/internet explorer" buttons on the hardware keybord.
Anyone find them in the register?
Is this what You need ?
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\OEM\Keybd\PieHomePage
regards,
Ruud
Thanks for your reply.
That key is for changing the default homepage.
What i'm searching for is the following;
I have Opera as Web Browser.
When i push the internet button automaticly the default Browser (PIE) starts.
I would like to change the path of that key to the Opera browser.
Thesame for the mail button.
I would like to change the path from the default application to the programm i use.
I found in \Windows\AppButtons about every link for the buttons to start applications.
However mail isn't there.
If I take the Iexplore link en change its target in the properties to \Storage card\Program Files\Opera opera.exe it still doensn't work.
Not even after a soft reset.
Thats strange because the link in \Windows\AppButtons is indeed now opening Opera correctly.
I'sn't this \Windows\AppButtons related to the registry?
If not, this map doesn't make any sence to me.
Am I the only person who likes his Iexplore/Mail button to directly open the program I use instead of the default one?
I'd like to change the IE button to open Windows Media Player (I use it more often, so it makes sense to me)
So if anyone knows this, that would be grand
if you have t mobile rom NL
if you have t mobile rom NL this is the solution
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FavoritesEntries\T-Mobile Favourites\url
this is the reg file to chance the home page
goodluck!
I too have been wanting to change teh Mail and Explorer.

Opera Mini

Hello,
I'm unsing Shaps Rom 4.30 WWE and I would like to use Opera Mini as my default browser and open it with a hardware button.
Is there any chance to get this to work?
I have no idea how I can start a programm in java manager without starting first the java manager.
If not a hardware button, is there the possibility to make an entry in the start menu for opera mini?
Thanks for help
was wondering the same thing...would like to initiate Opera Mini with one click of the top right 'IE' button as well. i just have it mapped to open Java first.
to allow an icon to show up in "Buttons", just add a link to the exe in the folder /Windows/AppButtons. Then you should be able to select it under settings and launch the app.
If not it's easy enough to create a cab to change the registry and remap the button that way - but you need to know the physical path of the exe.
might be a solution for ya
i mapped opera mini to directly open with my IE hardware button by using total commander, go into \windows\appbuttons then on internet explorer select properties then fully uncheck "read only" and "system" then go to the shortcut tab at the top and replace the path that would previously open internet explorer to the following "\windows\jeodek.exe" -run s1_ then click ok then recheck the "read only" and "system" boxes, and it clicking the IE hardkey will now open opera mini directly, i read this somewhere i dont recall where but i am not taking credit for it in anyway, just relaying what worked for me
Like wise, if you're using Esmertec JBed, you can make an Opera.lnk file with the following in it:
Code:
244#\Windows\jbed.exe -run s0_
And this will create a shortcut that will run Opera Mini directly (assuming it was the first app you installed in JBed, otherwise you may have to adjust to s1_ or s2_ etc...)
Hi,
I am usin a Java intend (tao) instead of emertec which use a different exe.
My path:
27#"\Windows\jmm.exe" -run s0_
But Shortcut only opens Java manager, have to select Operamini icon manualy
Can´t find direct shortcut, pls. help
Found out. This shortcut is working:
68#"\Windows\jmm.exe" -r"Opera Mini","Opera Software ASA","Opera Mini "
Install and use these files to open Mini. You can link the button to open this mortscript also. I found these somewhere else and I don't remember. so don't give me any credit.
One of them gives a menu with Opera Mini or IE to open with. The other just opens mini.
you can also uninstall without problems too.

Revisions:
v1.4 *** 2008-07-07
- Created help files.
- Browser: Skyfire fully compatible now, new scan/detection with fail-over paths (if browsers references don't exist in the usual locations like the registry). If default browser timeout is set to zero, the JZ Browser prompt will be bypassed entirely.
- Opera Mini: full-screen, kill JBed option, multiple URL & pasting options.
- Lots of new options for button mapping. All known registry and link file button hacks now integrated to allow virtually any command to be called up. Also provides ability to create a CUSTOM link file from scratch.
- Changed menus to include menu-returns for easy navigation and better user friendliness. Added letters to Action menu as qwerty keyboard shortcuts.
- Phone-specific menu under JZ Settings which expands button mapping for BlackJack II (Samsung i617) CV/MediaNet buttons, as well as, AT&T Tilt (HTC Kaiser) PTT & Long-PTT buttons. More will be added.
- Creation of Start Menu shortcuts & opening of JBed applications w/o needing to open JBed first.
- 3 different methods under JZ Settings > JZ Misc. Options for opening Favorites. Save a Favorite from the JZ Browser script when you pop a link.
- Incorporated VitoCopyPaste with a timeout to return your directional pad action button back to normal.
- Various speed & optimization considerations incorporated.
- Function to deal with MortScript losing focus (e.g. when Home is pressed while Mort choice menu is running).

Shortcuts on Settings tab

How can I change the shortcuts that appear on the TouchFlo 3D Settings tab?
Endless searching on xda-developers and I can't find it, except for hints that it's hidden in some Diamond cab files people have created.
I want to remove some infrequently used settings (eg. "Mail Setup") and add others (eg. Power).
I've seen threads on how to add/change the Programs shortcuts to do this, but not to change the actual Settings tab.
Thanks.
(Reposted from General Discussion Q&A forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550183&goto=newpost; realised this was a better forum as it may be Rhodium-/Manila-specific.)
Hmm you'd probably have to find the _manilla file that displays the settings tab and edit it. This may be a difficult task because there is a ton of _manilla files in the windows folder!
I have managed to remove Mail Setup by editing the registry
\HKCU\Software\Htc\Manila\
"IsShowEmailSetup" = 0
Thanks. Works nicely for that silly Email shortcut, but there are several others I'd like to kill (I really don't change my wallpaper, tabs, 'My Contact Card', or G-Sensor that much HTC!) and more I'd like to add in from the "All Settings" list.
It's a start though, appreciate the tweak.
i just decided to hide the settings tab altogether! totally a waste of space.
How did you hide the settings tab completely? I've been looking to try and do this. it is locked and not editable in my customize tabs. Also I've looked through the manila reg edit and still can't find a binary value that hides settings tab

Simple, install advanced config 3.3 and you can add or remove items from the settings tab.

is it possible to just do a reg edit of this. I hate installing programs I will only use for one purpose and uninstalling them.
in addition, to that ,advance config requires newer framenet which I don't want to install either. (also working off vista, which does not support activesync).
nevermind, I figured it out... but hiding the settings tab renders the whole thing unusable. I just wanted to hide the tab, but not hide the functionality (through start menu).
for those who want to know its as follows:
HKCU\software\htc\manila\
"Manila://settings.page.hidden" = 1

Win 6.5 Home Screen

Is there a way to configure what is displayed on the HOME SCREEN, besides going to SETTINGS for the limited options in HOME SCREEN?
Like i want to keep most things, but remove PICS, CALENDAR, etc.
And keep the titanium theme.
I did search, so I hope i dont get banned...
In the ROM is CHome Config also known as Titanium Configurator will change the panels that are shown and allow you to create and edit.
I fully understand your new and know that some of the software may not be eazy to identify what is.
Exactly, if you open CHome Config, you can hide and customize the panels with few clicks.

AT&T Tilt2 - Make IE default browser?

Does anyone know how to set IE as the default browser? I have the AT&T Tilt 2, WM6.5 factory ROM. I have a program that is not compatible w/ the Opera browser, and I think I like the ability to switch between the 2 variants (modes) (desktop & mobile) of the IE browser.
Thanks,
Dave
tilt 2 default browser
It seems like this should be possible from the registry somewhere. But not everyone want so mess with the registry, or they don't have time to mess with other apps. The 'easiest' way I've found to do it is to launch IE, go to the options menu and tell it to ask if it's the default browser upon launch. Close IE, re-launch and make it the default browser. I had the same problem with an app working waaaay better with IE over Opera.
Search xda for a cab called FIXIE.cab. It will make your pocket IE the default browser.
